Abstract

This paper presents the last leg of the evolution of the Master Slave (MS) optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology, towards complex master slave (CMS), where phase information is also delivered. We will show how matrix manipulation of signals can lead to real time display. We have demonstrated that this can be executed on central processing units (CPU)s with no need for graphic processing units (GPU)s, yielding simultaneous display of multiple en-face OCT images (C-scans), two cross-section OCT images (B-scans) and an aggregated image, equivalent to a scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) image when imaging the retina, which is similar to a confocal microscopy image. The same protocol can obviously be applied employing GPUs when using faster acquisition engines, such as multi MHz swept optical sources.
